Good and bad. I don't see any way they can improve on Seven Samurai, but the concept of Ziyi Zhang as Mulan with a script from the same writer as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon definitely appeals.

Seven Samurai is Corey's favorite movie. He's going to have a fit when he finds out about plans for a remake. Let's not tell him yet, shall we?

Just make sure he has a nice Criterion Edition nearby so he can hold it and weep.
